One judge saw Thurman win 8 rounds, that's got be the big story tomorrow.

Manny won the fight clearly. When he attacked, Thurman went into a panic most of the time. Manny hit harder or should I say “took a punch better”.
Was never a fan of Thurman. I am now. Boys got heart. He was very hurt and still was trying to win.
All this said; Manny please retire at 40 with 2 brand new belts. You’ve done it all. Theres nothing left for you to prove. You were in the ring with a champion but the other two are like you when you fought Delahoya, Cotto, Margarito. Give them THEIR time now. You've had yours. Ive truly enjoyed watching you. Thank you.

I give props to Thurman for how he was a man in taking his first loss. Most fighters come up with excuses to protect their egos. Pac should fight Khan and retire IMO.

What a legendary fight!

Past prime shopworn Pacman but on a vintage performance by beating a prime career welterweight in Thurman!

9-5

Paxmannwins by UD!

Thurman got beat up and rocked and dropped and hurt to the body all night and was on his bike by the much smaller man in Pacman!

This score must be a joke...

Pacquiao just became the oldest welterweight champion in history.

Unreal
Some want to talk peds, hes 40 and a half and fighting a prime champion. Theres a lot of people on gear in sports but some how manny has super duper PEDS.
Great fight by both men. Yeah if I was floyd I would stay retired also. Just sayin.

Tested over 700 times and never failed a test. Drug tested more than most. Yes he has super duper people that can hide things.

I'm so sick of this BS because people cant accept that the man is that good. Have some respect.

I dont think its PEDs ala steroids...what I do want to know is if he took a shot of Toredol for his shoulder...if so, then unless u clearly catch him like Marquez, he wont feel anything. It's been ignored, but all u have to do is look what NFL players said about it.

That was some vintage Pacquaio in some rounds, fantastic. I don't know what the one judge was smoking, because Manny won so clearly. Thurman came back courageously winning a few rounds, but it looked more likely him that could be stopped. Obviously Spence, and especially Crawford, would be a tougher fight to win for Pacman, but he would be tough to beat for anyone. The legend continues a while longer.
